TfL to scrap 611 school bus

Local London Assembly Member, Andrew Dismore AM, says TfL’s decision to scrap the 611 bus in favour of extending the 112 bus from Ealing is flawed and disappointing. Currently the 112 bus terminates at Brent Cross, but will now continue along the A406, before turning on to the A1000 and terminating at North Finchley. The 611 service from Stonebridge Park terminates in North Finchley.

Local London Assembly Member, Andrew Dismore AM, said:

“Whilst the extension of the 112 is a good idea, TfL rarely listen to the responses to their consultation and carry on regardless with whatever they want to do. I am concerned that pupils of Bishop Douglass will now have to use graffiti ridden, extremely dirty, steep staircases to get to and from school. It is very unfair on them.”
